All things BDiddy.

So much has been written about the new “Star Trek” movie that it’s almost pointless for me to add my own two cents. Basically, I thought it was great. Tons of fun. One of the best summer movies I’ve seen in a long time. It’s hard for me to imagine anyone walking out of this movie that did not have a good time. So I’d highly recommend it to anyone.

I guess what I’m impressed by most is how J.J. Abrams turned me around on the idea of a new movie. I can remember rolling my eyes the first time I read that there was yet another reboot of the franchise being put together. However, Abram’s track record (Lost, Alias, MI:3) caused me to at least give it a shot. And the first full trailer that I saw turned my skepticism into excitement. And when I finally saw the movie last Friday, it didn’t disappoint.

If you’ve seen it, then you definitely want to check out some of these links. If you haven’t, don’t. And go see it soon.

First, we deal with the passing of the great Jerry Reed earlier this year. Then last week, we find out that the car division Pontiac is being scuttle…virtually assuring that the Trans Am is gone forever. And I just learned this morning that the great Dom DeLuise has passed away.

“Dom DeLuise, the U.S. comic actor who gained fame on television and in movies such as “The Cannonball Run,” “Blazing Saddles,” “Smokey and the Bandit II,” and “The Muppet Movie” has died at age 75. DeLuise died on Monday night at a hospital in the Los Angeles community of Santa Monica, his agent Robert Malcolm said.”

There’s the Lone Ranger and Tonto. There’s Batman and Robin. There’s Riggs and Murtaugh. And then there’s Burt Reynolds and Dom Deluise.

“Dom always made you feel better when he was around, and there will never be another like him,” said Burt Reynolds in an e-mail.

I loved Captain Chaos. I loved Captain USA. And I loved the outtakes most of all. Dom, thanks for the laughs.

I’m as skeptical as anybody about another trilogy of “Terminator” movies. But it’s hard not to be captivated by this new trailer for the Christian Bale-version that’s about to drop in May. I highly recommend that you skip the YouTube version and go here and download the 1080p version. It is worth your download wait.

Watchmen is coming! And it’s out in theatres this Friday! And it could be the best superhero movie ever!

That’s great and all. But here’s the problem. You don’t have a freaking clue as to exactly what all this hoopla is all about. Sure, you’ve seen the trailer. But you don’t have the slightest idea what any of it means…

“What’s up with the blue guy? Is he naked? That’s weird. Did he just blow that guy up by touching him? Is Iron Man in this? Hey, that’s a Smashing Pumpkin song, right? That’s sort of cool. Are they still together? I wonder what we’re having for dinner tonight.”
